How does the ocean influence climate?

Physics
1 answer:
Mazyrski [523]3 years ago
4 0
<span>Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.</span>

A car owner forgets to turn off the headlights of his car while it is parked in his garage. If the 12.0-V battery in his car is
avanturin [10]

Answer: 22.6 hours

Explanation:

The power is the measure of the rate of energy.

In this problem, the 12.0 V battery is rated at 51.0 Ah, which means it delivers 51.0 A of current in a time of t = 1 h = 3600 s. The power delivered by the battery can be written as

P=IV

where

I is the current

V = 12.0 V is the voltage of the battery

So the energy delivered by the battery can be written as

E=Pt=VIt

Where

It=51.0 A\cdot h = 51.0 A \cdot 3600 s/h=183,600 A\cdot s

So the energy delivered is

E=(12.0)(183,600)=2.2\cdot 10^6 J

At the same time, the headlight consumes 27.0 W of power, so 27 Joules of energy per second; Therefore, it will remain on for a time of:

t=\frac{2.2\cdot 10^6 J}{27.0 W}=81481 s = 22.6 h
